Our favorite former Dallas Cowboys quarterback turned CBS broadcasting maestro, Tony Romo, has managed to land himself in the absolute center of a Milwaukee legal mess!
Reports confirmed that Romo was arrested on suspicion of Operating While Intoxicated (OWI - first offense) up in Wisconsin.

You literally cannot write a script like this, folks!
Jim Nantz Is Screaming Into A Pillow Right Now!

Lads, imagine being the producer over at CBS right now. You are getting ready for the upcoming NFL broadcast season, mapping out Romo's signature 'Oooh I don't know Jim!' predictions, and suddenly your star analyst is taking an unexpected detour through a Milwaukee precinct!
